Kenmore Dryer 110.97576602 (11097576602, 110 97576602) Parts

This lint duct assembly forms the sealed air path between the lint screen and the blower. Replacing a damaged or leaking duct restores proper airflow and drying performance while helping keep lint contained within the filtration path.

• Directs air from the drum through the lint screen to the blower and exhaust
• Maintains a sealed passage to optimize airflow and drying efficiency
• Replace if cracked, warped, or loose, or if mounting tabs are broken
• Common symptoms: long dry times, weak exhaust airflow, lint inside the drum/cabinet, or visible damage/gaps

• Disconnect power and shut off gas supply before servicing
• Remove the lint screen and access panels as required by the model to reach the duct
• Note fastener locations; transfer any attached sensors, brackets, seals, and screws from the old duct to the new one
• Vacuum lint from the blower housing and vent path before reassembly; ensure the duct seats and seals evenly

The lid switch lever connects the washer's lid hinge to the lid switch, signaling when the lid is closed so the cycle can run. A damaged lever can prevent the safety interlock from closing, leading to no-start or spin issues. What it does:

• Transfers lid movement at the hinge to the lid switch actuator
• A closed lid so the washer can operate
• Common symptoms of a failed lever: washer won't start; won't spin; cycle pauses because the lid-closed signal isn't detected

• 1 lid switch lever

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Lift or open the top to access the hinge/switch area; locate the lever near the lid switch
• Remove the old lever and install the new one in the same orientation; free movement
• Close the lid by hand and the switch clicks before reassembly and testing

Designed for use in dryers, the gas valve assembly is a part with solenoids or coils. These are used to close and open the valve that controls how much gas flows through the internal parts of the dryer. The gas valve assembly is made of strong materials but can become damaged or worn out. When this occurs, the dryer may not longer create heat during a cycle. If this happens, test the coils using a multimeter. If the reading is not within 1,000 to 2,000 ohms, the gas valve assembly should be replaced.Before starting, unplug the dryer from the wall and shut off the gas supply. Remove the lint screen from the housing and use a screwdriver to take out the screws in the housing. Disassemble the dryer to gain access to the gas valve and coils. Remove the screws from the mounting bracket to detach this part. Replace with the new component and test before use.The gas valve assembly is designed to be used with dryers by Kenmore, Maytag, and Amana. This genuine OEM part is directly sourced from the manufacturer. It is priced as a single unit.

This factory fastener secures appliance components and panels, helping keep assemblies properly aligned and tight. Replace worn, stripped, or missing hardware to eliminate looseness and vibration and maintain safe, reliable operation.

• Fastens brackets, panels, trim, and internal assemblies to the cabinet/frame
• Helps maintain alignment of doors, consoles, or covers
• Restores a tight fit to reduce rattling, vibration, or shifting
• Common symptoms: missing screw, stripped head/threads, loose panel or handle, recurring vibration/noise

• Disconnect power (and shut off gas/water if applicable) before servicing
• Match thread and length to the original fastener for proper fit
• Start threading by hand to avoid cross-threading; use the correct driver
• Do not overtighten into plastic or thin sheet metal

This stacking kit secures a dryer on top of a compatible washer to save floor space and stabilize the stacked units. It helps keep the dryer aligned and reduces shifting or rocking during use. What it does:

• Provides a secure connection between dryer and washer to create a stable stacked laundry configuration.
• Helps prevent the dryer from sliding, tilting, or shifting during spin cycles — common signs a stack kit is needed.
• Uses brackets and mounting hardware to fasten the dryer to the washer and maintain alignment.

• Disconnect power to both appliances and follow all safety precautions before starting installation.
• Have a second person assist when lifting or positioning the dryer to avoid injury or damage.
• Follow the OEM installation instructions and torque guidance for mounting hardware; ensure both appliances are level and stable after installation.
